    Let me know if you want one and I can try to get a list together in the event that I am lucky enough to get 12-24 bottles. Let's cross our fingers!! :ugeek:

    I hope you are getting more than one case because a case of 750mL bottles consists of 12 bottles, not the normal 24- 12oz bottles.

    yeah...but a case of twelve 750ml bottles is pretty much equal to a case of twenty four 12 oz bottles :lol:

    Correct. I was more talking about quantity to share rather than quantity to drink. But it's surprising how fast all that extra beer is consumed.

    Sam Calagione from DFH will be at Blind Tiger Ale House on October 19th at 6:10pm. In tow will be Faithfull!!!! Not only do you get to try Faithfull, you will drink it in the prescence of a craft beer legend!

    From Blind Tiger Ale House:

    I didn’t know I was on off-centered person until Sam Calagione told me back in 1996. I didn’t believe him at first. I explained how I’d traveled the world trying to find my navel, spending time in India (where most of my practice involved avoiding the water, only to be foiled by an ice cube), the Golden Triangle (the path to enlightenment there was illegal but didn’t give me dysentery), and the Far East (it’s almost impossible not to be present on five dollars a day, and yet somehow I managed it). Eventually, I had to admit he was probably right.
    “So what does being off-centered mean exactly?” I asked him.
    Sam smiled and said, “It means you never have to be embarrassed about anything you do. You’re out of whack and that’s okay.” To celebrate he proceeded to show me how extreme beers were actually quite sessionable for people like us. And it’s true, they are, for a while. I remember waking up in the fetal position staring at my navel. I had found it. Or as an Off-Centered Person would say, it had found me.
    Once I was part of Sam’s tribe, he began calling with suggestions. “I think we should carve out the insides of a hundred gourds and serve Punkin’ Beer in them at the Tiger.” Some of you older Tigerites might remember ducking during that event, which turned into the biggest, drunkest, food fight since Animal House. And it’s been like that ever since, for going on 15 years now.
    I bring this up because the Dalai Lama of Off-Centered People will be joining us next Weds, Oct 19th, at 6:10 pm (I’m guessing a centered person would arrive at 6) and he won’t be coming alone. What guru would travel without an entourage? There are four guests in particular that I’m looking forward to meeting: the just released Faithful, his tribute to Pearl Jam (2011 is the twentieth anniversary of their debut album “Ten”), a golden liquid that’s a cross between two of the band’s favorite things: pinot noir and beer. No wonder they’ve lasted so long. As well as his Wet Hop American Summer, made with 50 lbs of cascade hops flown in from Washington State. And Tweason’ale, his very off-center gluten-free beer made with strawberries, sorghum, and honey.
    Those four beers, along with the 120 Minute IPA, will be tapped at 6:30 so Sam can taste test them first. Also, he’ll be bringing some key chains that are also prison shivs - I can’t wait to see what we’re going to do with those after a bunch of ten percent beer - and the first 50 people who buy any of the 6:30 beers get them. The rest have to defend themselves with broken bottles...

    The rest of the list:

    60 Min
    90 Min
    120 Min
    Indian Brown Ale
    Sah’tea
    My Antonia
    Bitches Brew
    Black & Red
    Burton Baton ‘09
    Raison D’extra ‘05
    Tweason’ale
    Faithfull Ale
    Wet Hop American Summer
    75 Minute IPA Firkin
    Hell Hound on my Ale (Bottles)

    Also, on Tues Oct 18th, at 6pm, we’ll be celebrating/commiserating and fundraising for record store Bob! We’ll be running a 50/50 raffle, which means the winner splits the pot with Bob! You can buy 1 ticket for $2 or 3 for $5. We’ll also be featuring some of Bob’s! favorite beers. Think big and malty. In honor of NYC Cider Week, which begins Monday, I’ll also be tapping a gravity cask of the hard cider I made on my farm in Vermont.

    And the day before that, which would be Mon Oct 17th, beginning at 6:00 pm, we’re doing a collaboration beer dinner with our good friends at Perilla, just down the street. They’ve put together an 5 course menu priced at $95 per person. I chose the beers and will be there to talk you through your meal. Here’s the updated pairings:

    Cheddar Beer Soup with toasted pumpernickel & sunflower seed praline paired with Lagunitas Little Sumpin’ Sumpin’, Wheat Pale Ale, Petaluma, CA (7.5% ABV)

    Crispy Rock Shrimp Salad with chicken liver mousse, speck ham, mizuna, piquillo peppers & violet mustard paired with Hill Farmstead Edward, American Pale Ale, Greensboro Bend, Vermont (5.2% ABV)

    Roasted Cod with pomegranate, brussels sprouts, almonds & kabocha squash sauce paired with Allagash Victor, Belgian Strong Pale Ale, Portland, Maine (9% ABV)

    Ginger-Sassafras Braised Short Ribs with celery root, honey crisp apples & braised lacinato kale paired with Stone Sublimely Self Righteous, Black IPA, Escondido, California (8.7% ABV)

    Malted Carrot Cake with raisin coulis, “snap” caramel & walnut ice cream paired with North Coast Old Stock Ale ’11, Old Ale, Fort Bragg, California (11.7% ABV)

    I know. I'm hoping for atleast a full case and possibly 2. That's why I broke it out in "bottles."

    It depends on your palate, but a Belgian flavored with currants isn't going to be for everyone.

    Some of their brews definitely require a specific palate. Didn't care for Bitches Brew at all and felt really guilty dumping most of it out.

    120 minute IPA



    Well there you go.

    120 Minute IPA is a VERY strong IPA. It is a limited release beer, and unless you drank one that has aged for a couple of years, odds are it was very malty and not super hoppy. If you drink a "newer" one, it will not have reached its flavor potential.

    Try a 60 or 90 minute IPA, or the Raison D'Etre.
